Gripes about the treatment of workers in the ME and elsewhere are legitimate. Things have improved to a certain extent BECAUSE of the exposure on the international stage, and long may that continue.
Where Popo is a hypocrite is that he has poured scorn on others for working in the UAE while the workers are poorly treated- then the above reveals the reason HE left is because the apartment he was given (which any worker would kill for) wasn't up to his standards.
